I've covered a lot of protests, but I've never seen the level of harassment our TV colleagues are facing in Ottawa. It's incredibly disheartening.

Newsrooms: Protect your workers.

@JRubinBlogger Bully for you, telling it like it is. The re-rise of #nazis worldwide, shifting alliances (real), the telling of history (not real).

Actually, the @TorontoStar spoke to some non-violent folks on the Hill yesterday, and that story is on the front page of today's paper. We did that even though another protester shouted a death threat at us simply for doing our jobs.

DON'T FEEL GUILT ABOUT TAKING SICK DAY!
If you are working at employer's premises, stay home when you're sick.

You protect your own health and those of your colleagues.

Also if showing COVID-19 symptoms, get tested asap!
